Complete step-by-step solution -
According to question,
We have to find the first five multiples of five.
First 5 multiples of 5 are:
 $
  5 \times 1 = 5 \\
  5 \times 2 = 10 \\
  5 \times 3 = 15 \\
  5 \times 4 = 20 \\
  5 \times 5 = 25 \\
$
Hence, the first five multiples of 5 are: 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25.

Note: People often get confused between multiples and factors. You must know that the factor of a number is a number that can be multiplied to get the number. And multiple of a number is the number that we get after multiplying the positive integer.
